Summary
A lot of ground has been covered in this chapter. We learned what SDL is and why it is a great tool for game development. We looked at the overall structure of a game and how it can be broken into individual parts, and we started to develop the skeleton of our framework by creating a Game class that can be used to initialize SDL and render things to the screen. We also had a small look at how SDL handles events by listening for a quit event to close our application. In the next chapter we will look at drawing in SDL and building the SDL_image extension.
